The death of David s. Ruddock, once editor of The New London Daily Star brings to mind the old days of persona journalism in this state, now practically gone by. His Star was a singular pro duct, and with the continually ''egging' it received at the hands of "Ike'' Bromley, then of The Norwich Bulletin, made the passage at arms between the two papers the most readable of anything published in the state at that time. It is not likely that old newspaper men in Connecticut will ever forget Editor Ruddock's persist. ent and conspicuous advertisement oi Boy wanted at The Star office" It was one of the standards" of newspaper life. But with all this, Mr. Ruddock was kind. ly gentleman, an enthusiastic republican of the early days of the party, and man who was held in high esteem of hisfellow tOWnsmen. .f x ..A
